erin is joining us from washington. erin, it's been almost two months now and there's a lot of people who are still struggling. first of all, just give us a sense of how you and bear and your family are doing right now. >> we are doing as well as can be expected. our entire community is struggling and we will struggle for quite some time. all things considered, we're back to a new normal routine and i'm just trying to move forward. >> erin, can you tell us what it is like to be in that room? we saw that gentleman there very emotional about losing his own child. i can imagine that there's a lot of things you're thinking about and feeling when you're in that room and you hear that day being replayed over and over. >> it's particularly emotional. i don't think there were hardly any of us there with dry eyes and yet we've heard these stories before. so i think the impact on the legislators and those of you at home watching will be pretty strong, too. you can't hear these stories and not be touched. this was just a tragedy.

but erin, it's going to be a lengthy process. when you think about it, 2010 was the "splendour" incident and they still have not released the findings of that investigation. we know investigators got on board the ship yesterday. they surveyed the damage from the fire. today they interviewed the very tired captain of that ship, as well as some passengers. they really want to piece together a full account of what exactly happened on board that vessel. they're also looking through the information they retrieved from the so-called ship's black box. the voyage data recorder. so they've retrieved that information and they're hoping that will tell a better, broader story of what exactly happened and how that fire started. >> all right, sandra, thank you very much. serious questions. as we've been saying, not just for the people who are on board that ship but for anybody who is considering taking a cruise. we spoke to carnival cruise lines tonight and we're told it's too soon for them to say howl the investigation will take. the results
